natural and organic products from Whole Foods Market through Prime Now
in Ann Arbor, Detroit, Jacksonville, Madison, Milwaukee, Omaha, Orlando,
St. Louis, Tampa and Tulsa as well as additional areas of New York City
and Seattle. Starting today, Prime members in those cities can shop
through Prime Now for thousands of bestselling items including fresh
produce, high quality meat and seafood, everyday staples and other
locally sourced items from Whole Foods Market. Now available in 48
cities, the service launched earlier this year with plans for continued

Today also marks the first expansion of grocery pickup from Whole Foods

launched last month and is now available in Ft. Worth, Kennesaw,

the Prime Now app and choose the pickup option at checkout. Customers
can choose free pickup in as little as an hour on orders of $35, or in

customers park in a designated pickup spot and a Prime Now shopper will
place groceries into their car within minutes. For customers who tell us
they are on their way to the store in the Prime Now app, groceries will
be ready as they arrive.

“Prime Now delivery continues to be a hit with our customers and we’re
excited to introduce the service in ten new cities plus more
neighborhoods in New York and Seattle,” said Christina Minardi, Whole
Foods Market Executive Vice President of Operations. “And for our
